Late at night, Snape, who had just returned from having his wounds dressed by Filch, spotted a figure standing outside his office door. Leaning on a cane with one hand, Iblis pointed at the carved little snake on the door and swore, "Is this how you treat a patient? What do you mean you can't open the door for me? Once I pull you down from up there, you can say 'noisy' to me again!"
With that, she hopped on one foot, trying to reach the little snake on the door. Suddenly, she was hoisted into the air by the waist. Iblis raised her eyes to meet Snape's freezing gaze. "It seems that being injured does nothing to dampen Miss Grimm's enthusiasm for harassing others. It is quite a wonder that Madam Pomfrey let you leave at all."
Iblis curled her lip. "Evading her supervision is troublesome, but not difficult. Besides, I sleep even worse there. Put me down, I have something to ask you."
